You do not need any product key in this release - the installationof Tiny7 is unattended, apart from in the very beginning where youchoose which drive or partition to install to.

All installations are set to US English. If you do not want the USkeyboard settings, you will have to change this in Windows when ithas installed (as opposed to choosing it at install time), its easyenough, just open the "Keyboard Settings" folder in the desktopeXPerience folder and read the included ReadMe.txt that is there.

Most of these folders contain quick solutions to things that otherwisewould be buried away in the Windows GUI, or you would have to know thecommand to run the item, like "control userpasswords2" will open thescreen to change your Windows 7 login password, or "intl.cpl" runs the"Regional and Language Options" from Control Panel.

I have used this modded OS for a few days and it seems every bit as fastas Windows XP. If you have always wanted to use Vista, but were holdingout for Windows 7 - its worth it! This slimmed edition boots up fast,shuts down fast, opens applications fast, even VMware v5.5 runs faston it once its started up. File copying seems no slower than XP. Allin all this new Windows really blows away XP because of all the newfeatures. You have to remember XP is from 2001 when no one even hadsuch a thing as "Wireless" or a SATA drive. Now all this new hardwareruns on Windows XP but the OS was never designed to run it really.You might wonder why not just use Vista - don't even go there. Letsjust pretend Vista never existed. In fact Microsoft should have notever released it but I guess they had to in order to improve on itand eventually get it right - with Windows 7.
